It’s time to get your freak on as clubland goes all out for Hallowe’en

CLUBLAND types are already creatures of the night so Hallowe’en is the perfect excuse for a party. Here are my picks:

TONIGHT

GOODGREEF HALLOWE’EN BIRTHDAY SPECIAL. With 11 years under their belt it is a double celebration at Manchester’s Sankeys club for one of the north west’s best loved club nights.

Topping the bill is the hugely talented DJ/producer John O’Callaghan, he will be joined by Dutch wunderkind Hardwell making his regional debut. Also on the bill are fellow Dutchman Marcel Woods, the world’s number one female DJ Claudia Cazau and a string of talented DJs and producers. See www.sankeys.info for more details.

OH MY GOD! D’N’B HALOWEEN FANCY DRESS SKANK OUT. Rumours on Manchester’s Deansgate Locks is the venue for this monster mash-up. Enjoy sets from Logan D plus Davie’Dee and Frisko, Rowney and Ropez, Unkown and Logic, Sly back to back with Majistrate, Altered States and many more. Doors open 9pm-4am.

TOMORROW

HALLOWE’EN FANCY DRESS MONSTER’S BALL AT MANSION. The fun starts with a Champagne reception then residents Dave Whelan and Mike di Scala will be joined on the decks by special guest Anton Powers plus there will be a live PA from the magnificent Cassandra Fox performing the Faithless smash hit Music Matters and the Rui da Silva classic Touch Me. The team promise a fuil horror movie club transformation and there will be a prize for the best fancy dress outfits.

NIGHTMARE ON EBERLE STREET PART 3. There will be ghostly goings on at Passion with music from Les Calvert, Lil John, Denny Dowd and Danny Fisher until 6am. Clubbers beware you’re in for a scare.

CARNEVIL, CIRCUS OF HORRORS. They will be putting the frighteners on you down at Circo with zombies and ghouls on standby and residents Robbie Edwards and Peter Piorun on the decks.

SALUTE THE SPOOKS, MURDER ON THE MERSEY. Following the hugely successful Salute the Royals boat party in April, the team are back on the river for this all out Hallowe’en extravaganza. Expect lots of mad goings and fabulous fancy dress.

The wonderful Chris Griff and Joe-Ann Randles are your hosts while music comes from Robbie Edwards, Billie Clements, Craig Talent, Peter Piorun and Danny Fisher. The boat departs the Pier Head at 8pm returning at midnight then the party carries on at Circo until 1.30am.

MONDAY
